“I am already doing light training for my upcoming fight. After Christmas and New Year, the real work begins. I am happy that I won last month, but it’s time to move on and take on the next challenge,” pahayag niya.

“Facing someone like Aoki is never easy, but I think I have a good understanding of his style and what he brings to the table,” the Filipino superstar stressed. “I will expect a different Aoki in Japan, and he can expect the same from me.”
